Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on comic news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email our team at either david@multiversitycomics.com or brian@multiversitycomics.com.

– Legendary artist Bernie Wrightson is beloved in the comic community, and sadly, he suffered a series of small strokes yesterday. He’s in good spirits and doing well considering, according to Steve Niles, but make sure to keep him and his family in your thoughts, and everyone at Multiversity is pulling for your speedy recovery Bernie. Also, to learn about what kind of person Wrightson is, Ron Marz spoke of who he is on Twitter and it’s well worth a read.

– Rick Remender, a guy who deserves some awesome news after the insanity over the last week, shared on Twitter yesterday that his new book “Low” with Greg Tocchini at Image sold 50,000 copies, which is pretty rad news indeed. Congrats Rick and Greg! The books looks fantastic.

– Stephen Amell, maybe the single greatest celebrity today in terms of engaging with fans and actually seemingly being a good person (and I am not just bewitched by his abs), will be the the Master of Ceremonies for “A Night of DC Entertainment” on Saturday, July 26 at SDCC, debuting “The Flash” and sharing footage from “Constantine” and “Arrow” Season Three. I personally would prefer a one-man show where he just talks about things like his workout routine and how to make a perfect sandwich, but that sounds pretty neat too.

– Didn’t we already know this? David Slade will be directing the first two episodes of “Powers” on the Playstation Network.

– Luke Crane has a Kickstarter for a Mouse Guard game called Swords & Strongholds, and it looks like an awesome game that naturally features work from David Petersen and work by the vaunted Skelton Crew Studios on the deluxe version. Check it out.

– Going to be totally honest, this Rocket Raccoon bust is totally awesome. And I don’t even care about these things.
